Not very dire at all. This falls in the AutoQA realm, in the post-build
checking. One of the post-build checks we can do is size changes,
comparing the size of the new build to the size of the old build. If
the size grows significantly (probably a % amount) we throw up red
flags.
Taking it further, when AutoQA is rockin' and rollin' we could trigger
post-build to see if a given package is in the Desktop set, and if so,
use yum to get a size estimate of the entire desktop set to see if the
desktop set is pushed over the size limit.
We have lots of good stuff cooking and coming soon. I really think our
talks about it at FUDCon will make this clear.
